Power Class Settings; Using The Default Power Class Setting; Setting Power Class - 3Com 4007 Implementation Manual

Power Class Settings

A power class setting is a value in the range of 1 through 10 that is
assigned to each module. The highest setting is 10. Each module has a
default power class setting, which you can change with an EME
command. The EME uses the power class settings to manage power
among the modules in the chassis, and to determine the order in which it
powers on and powers off installed modules.
Even though the EME has a power class setting, you cannot manage the
power of an EME module. An EME always draws power when it is
inserted in the chassis, and you cannot power off an EME module using
an EME command.

Using the Default Power Class Setting

Each module is shipped with a default power class setting:
Module
EME
EMC
Interface Module
Switch Fabric Module

Setting Power Class

To set the power class for a module that is in a specified slot, enter the
command at the EME prompt using the following
set power class
syntax:
set power slot <slot #> class <class #>
In the following example, the module in slot 2 is set to power class 5:
:
CB9000> set power slot 2 class
Enter class: 5
slot 02 power class is set to 05.
